Best Buy Will Sell the iPad

Best Buy Will Sell (a Very Limited Supply of) iPads

The highly anticipated iPad launch is just days away! If you haven't preordered an iPad, you'll have a few options when it comes to purchasing the gadget in person. According to an Apple press release, most Best Buy locations will carry the iPad when it goes on sale this Saturday. But apparently, iPads available at Best Buy will be in limited supply; according to a recently leaked Best Buy internal memo, each location will only receive 15 iPads — five of each of the 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB models — for this Saturday's release. Additionally, not all of these will be for sale; four iPads at each store will be marked as demonstration units only.

There's no report on how many iPads will be available at Apple retail stores, but hitting a store may be your bet bet if you're hoping to snatch up the device this weekend, since online supplies for preorder are already exhausted. It remains to be seen if the iPad will draw the same crowds as the iPhone's initial launch . . . I can tell you that there aren't any crowds waiting outside yet!

People are such suckers. They throw their money at every apple product that comes out. With a little patience they can get that same product for cheaper and with updates since apple always releases the product again in 2 months with extras.

Wow! I can't believe it. I mean, it's Apple, so I can kind of, but I remember when the news first broke and so many people were pissed because it doesn't have a camera, or flash, or mic, etc, and how a lot of people were boycotting it, but now it's out of stock online? Crazy
